Abstract (en)

NOx fumes are removed from a gas stream by cooling the gas stream at a cooling station (16) in a duct (10), passing the cooled gas stream through a fog of fine water droplets produced at a fogging station (18), and then removing from the gas stream the entrained water droplets. The preferred droplet size is 120 x 10<-><6>m or less. The preferred gas and water temperature is around 4 DEG C or 5 DEG C respectively.
